or the Mirage 2000 .. 60°/S roll rate is peanuts
Please note that the value of 60°/s is achievable on direct law. On the incident I referred to,the rate was around 20 to 25°/S instantaneous. On a normal flight, the average is 15°/s.
a roll rate in excess of 180 degrees a second probably would beat the A320, and we have recorded that off a B737 before today. Now, the aircraft was aerodynamically stalled and with a substantial yaw rate, but... there you go
Please don't tell me it was normal OPS
